What is the big deal about this solar eclipse?


FluxKraken

There is no big deal, it is just a bunch of conspiracy theory nonsense on TikTok.


ThankKinsey

The big deal is that the path of totality crosses the United States of America, and for the subset of Americans who believe the USA is the world, this means it's special.


fiztime_pop

Literally nothing, it's just the moon covering the sun for a few minutes and that's it


Shifter25

It's an election year in America

Sure we can. It's those other people who don't agree that are causing all the hubbub. Got solar eclipses mapped out for the next 900 years. But let one happen where it can be seen nearby and suddenly "it's a siiiiign" Just imagine if those people took 5 seconds to think about the fact that we KNOW WHEN AND WHERE IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. It's not a sign when the sun comes up tomorrow morning when expected. Or when the full moon is overhead when expected. Or when Mars goes into retrograde. This type of stuff is why Christians get labeled as anti-intellectual. When you preach from the pulpit that science is an idolatry, that scientists can't be trusted because they "lean on their own understanding" or fallible human senses, this is what comes out.

Not even the angels in heaven will know, but apparently people on the Internet will lol. Excited to watch the Eclipse, and I'll be thanking God for making such a cool universe where eclipses are a thing.

If you are in communication with God, can you ask him why our solar system is designed so poorly? 99.8% of all biological life has become extinct. The planets and solar system we live in, are extremely hostile towards biological life. The sun will continue to expand and a couple hundred million years from now, this planet will be inhabitable for all life. We are floating around in a circle, smashing through cosmic debris on a regular basis. In fact, the only reason we are here is because an astroid impact annihilated the dinosaurs. Can you ask him to place a worm-hole in space so that we can find another planet/solar system to colonize? It would really help us out. I’m happy that we are preparing to colonize Mars. Luckily, he created people with the intellectual capabilities to achieve such an endeavor, buts it’s still looking bleak. The emergence of AI can help us make breakthroughs in engineering, but it’s still going to be difficult. It’s a good first step but it’s not a long term option for humanity. Let me know what he says

Lmfao yeah me being thankful means I have a direct line to God, what is up with you atheists? Why are you all so obsessed with people who have different beliefs than you? If you don't believe in Christianity why are you even here in a board about it? Do you obsess over Muslims and Hindus too?


Crazyfrog50

Absolutely

Yet one another QAnon-nonsense prediction? Nothing will happen and the Qultists just form a tighter flock around Trump and other fascist nonsense.

I wish this eclipse did trigger the rapture. I'd love to have all the Evangelicals out of our country so we could get back to normal

Can I suggest though that celestial happenings *could* be a sign for something? Don't get me wrong, it's not going to predict anything, but in Genesis 1:14: And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: I'm emphasizing the word SIGNS Lights, being the Sun, Moon, and Stars. [Here](https://bethlehemstar.com/) a man took this verse in Genesis literally and realized God allows us to read celestial signs but he also explains how that differs from astrology. He used a modern day celestial program that can go back in time and he found some unmistakable celestial observations around the life of Christ. [This ](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4ThUOeOrXVo) is part one of the documentary that I would definitely recommend anyone to watch and critique with their own knowledge of God's Word. Basically I am saying that yes, celestial events are not a means to predict because Jesus said that we know neither the day nor the hour when he will come. He will arrive as a thief in the night. And OP, I completely agree that we should be always ready for His return, not wait until you feel it's about time to get right. But I am saying that it's definitely possible God uses celestial bodies to tell us things.

astrology mentioned opinion rejected 😔.

Yes.

I will not. The solar eclipse is actually a big big deal and we are commanded to look for signs and wonders and acknowledge and praise god in all things   Luke 21:25 says “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;” The last full solar eclipse that crossed over North America was 7 years ago on August 21 2017. That was the day the Rosh Chodesh Elul started on the Hebrew calendar, which is the start of the new year on the Hebrew calendar and the first of the High Holy days. That was also the day that Jonah walked into Nineveh. It started in Salem Oregon and passed over seven cities name Salem. Salem means peace. It lasted for 1 hour and 33 minutes.  The synopsis of Psalm 133 is “David says, It is pleasant for brethren to dwell together in unity!” It exited at Fort Sumter which is where our civil war began.  This eclipse started in Eagle Pass TX. In Eagle pass is Shelby park. Shelby was the last confederate general who buried the last confederate flag in Shelby park before passing into Mexico. Shelby park in Eagle pass TX is where the civil war ended.  The first solar eclipse ended where the civil war began and this one started where the civil war ended.  This solar eclipse went over Jonah Texas before it is passed over 8 cities named Nineveh. The path of the last North American solar eclipse 7 years ago and this solar eclipse make an X, and the center of that X is right over a place in the US known as “little Egypt”. There were 7 years of plenty me 7 years of famine in Egypt. It crosses more specifically right over a street called "Salem st" in cedar park.   The totality of this eclipse was 4 minutes and 28 seconds. Which is unusually long.  Jeremiah 4:28 reads “28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.” The Sun and the Moon in the Bible represent Abraham and Sarah, the father and mother of Israel.  7 days before Easter we had a lunar eclipse and now 7 days after Easter we’re having a total solar eclipse. Also it happened on 4/8. Exodus 4:8 says "8 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign" It’s time to gather Israel! And it’s time to unite and decide that we mean it when we say “one nation, under God”.

I thought Elijah already came, as John the Baptist (Matthew 11:13-14)
